Pavlo Pavlovych Kalynchev ( Ukrainian: Павло Павлович Калінчев; born 6 June 1981) is a Ukrainian former sailor, who specialized in the multihull ( Tornado) class. [1] Together with his partner Andriy Shafranyuk, he was named one of the country's top sailors in the mixed multihull catamaran for the 2008 Summer Olympics, finishing in a distant thirteenth position. [2] Throughout his competitive sporting career, Kalynchev trained as a member of the sailing squad for Ukraïna Mykolaïv. [3]
Kalynchev competed for the Ukrainian sailing squad, as a skipper in the Tornado class, at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. [3] [4] Leading up to their maiden Games, he and crew member Shafranyuk formally accepted a berth forfeited by New Zealand, as the next highest-ranked crew vying for qualification, based on the results at the Tornado Worlds five months earlier in Auckland. The Ukrainian duo started the series superbly with a couple of top-six marks in races 1 and 3, before fading steadily towards the sterns of the 15-boat fleet at the final stretch and never looked back, landing Kalynchev and Shafranyuk to a distant thirteenth overall with 99 net points.
